The high-temperature behaviour of siliceous faujasite (Si-Y) was investigated by in situ synchrotron X-ray powder diffraction from room temperature up to 1123 K. This porous phase is remarkably stable when heated, and no phase transitions or changes in symmetry are observed. A marked negative thermal expansion (NTE), already reported in literature for a heating range from 25 to 573 K, was confirmed up to about 923 K. Above this temperature a positive thermal expansion was observed. Si-Y’s thermal behaviour was interpreted on the basis of the transverse thermal vibrations of the oxygen atoms involved in the T–O–T linkages and a series of other structural features characterizing the faujasite structure, namely the T-T distances between adjacent tetrahedral sites, the thickness of the double 6-membered rings, and the ditrigonal index of the 6-membered rings. Moreover, the thermal behaviour of several other anhydrous porous materials with NTE behaviour is discussed and compared to that of Si-Y.

Abstract
The high-temperature behaviour of siliceous faujasite (Si-Y) was investigated by in situ synchrotron X-ray powder diffraction from room temperature up to 1123 K. This porous phase is remarkably stable when heated, and no phase transitions or changes in symmetry are observed. A marked negative thermal expansion (NTE), already reported in literature for a heating range from 25 to 573 K, was confirmed up to about 923 K. Above this temperature a positive thermal expansion was observed. Si-Y’s thermal behaviour was interpreted on the basis of the transverse thermal vibrations of the oxygen atoms involved in the T–O–T linkages and a series of other structural features characterizing the faujasite structure, namely the T-T distances between adjacent tetrahedral sites, the thickness of the double 6-membered rings, and the ditrigonal index of the 6-membered rings. Moreover, the thermal behaviour of several other anhydrous porous materials with NTE behaviour is discussed and compared to that of Si-Y.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
